sapote: The TARDIS sits near a tree in sunlight (Default)
Saturday, January 27th, 2007 07:15 pm
This morning my poor little vintage Thinkpad announced that it was going to explode if I didn't get some of my media off its harddrive now. It turned out I had about five megabytes of free space left on the harddrive. And yet my computer hadn't slowed down at all. How much do I love my laptop? Very much indeed.

So I burnt all my Due South season 3 onto cds, and started mislabeling them halfway through: example:
Hot Mounty Action
My Life Among the Muskox: A Documentary
National Curling Championships, 1998
Top Ten Canadian Sea Chanties
Rescue Breathing 101.

I am way too self-amused.

I've been playing with vidding software for the last couple of days. Of course I'm running Windows 98, which means no Windows Movie Maker for me. Right now I'm cutting up clips in one freeware program and putting them back together in another; it turns out neither of them is very handy for adding music. I will figure it out. I don't expect anything internet-publishable to come out of it, frankly, but it's been way more interesting than I expected to look at how episodes are put together shot by shot.

Tonight: Dinner (veggie burger and sweet potato fries) and movie (Marie Antionette) with townie friends. Tomorrow: hiking expedition. Skipping church, even. I'm a fanvid-making rebel like that.
